Ingredients
- 2 salmon fillets (£3.85)
- Spring onion, thinly sliced to serve (£0.65)
Cupboard Essentials
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp cornflour
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- Salt & pepper
Instructions
- Start by removing the skin off of your salmon fillets. Slice into cubes.
- Place the salmon in a bowl and coat in cornflour, then paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder and onion powder. Toss to combine.
- To a frying pan, add the olive oil and coat the base of the pan. Evenly distribute the salmon bites across the pan. Fry over a medium heat for 4-5 minutes, leaving undisturbed.
- After this time, rotate the pieces and add the soy sauce, honey and a pinch of salt and pepper. Continue to fry, stirring occasionally for a further 3 minutes.
- Remove from the pan and top with optional spring onion and an extra crack of black pepper.
Notes
- Cut salmon into even-sized pieces to ensure they cook evenly.
- Marinate salmon in spices for 15 minutes to deepen the flavour.
- Preheat the pan until it's hot to get a crispy sear on the nuggets.
- Fry in batches to avoid overcrowding and soggy salmon.
- Don’t overcook the salmon to keep the inside tender.
